About this Episode
In this week's episode of GameBurst, we examine a series of significant disruptions across the video gaming industry, from retail collapses to industrial action. We report on the high-street stalwart GAME, which has reportedly filed for administration, potentially ending its long-standing presence in British retail. Meanwhile, Valve faces a substantial £656m class action lawsuit in the UK over allegations of anti-competitive practices on its Steam platform.
The programme also covers the four-day strike launched by Ubisoft unions in France over wages and return-to-office policies, and Jagex's firm commitment to human artistry by rejecting generative AI for in-game content. Additionally, we analyze Microsoft's hardware struggles as Xbox revenue continues to decline. For this week's "Pick of the Week," our panel shares their latest experiences, ranging from the indie title MIO: Memories in Orbit to a visit to Nuuksio National Park in Helsinki.
